Four Keys to Operating a Thriving Cookie Business
Everyone loves cookies. You could ask 1,000 people a day if they like cookies and you will rarely get a negative response. Imagine giving that welcome-home feeling to hundreds or thousands of people. Think about how you would feel creating and selling a product that would dip your customers in memories and help them build more.
Opening and running a cookie business is the perfect way to spread the love and make money at the same time. Operating a cookie business is not always easy. It takes thought and due diligence to get it right; however, if you follow the five fundamental principles listed below, you will be on your way to a thriving cookie business.
Topics of Discussion:
- Quality Products
- Solid Business Plan
- Strong Brand
- Marketing
- Cookie Franchise
- Buying a Franchise
1. The first principle should never be far from your thoughts, even when experiencing the stress of starting a new business: remember why you’re here. Your mission is providing quality products, in your case delicious cookies, to bring smiles to your customers’ faces.
2. Planning creates a way to take your vision from concept to reality and also provides a tool that lets you share your vision with other people, like bankers. When you ask people to loan you money for starting a business, you need to have a way to show them the details. Things like expenses, revenue, pricing, marketing and how you will make your cookie business different from the competition.
3. Creating a strong brand is a critical component to building your business long-term. The more people recognize your name, the better your products will sell.
